Second edition. Last year we connected GPs and LPs. This year we're doing it faster. Latinos in VC is a speed dating format — GPs meet LPs, emerging managers meet allocators, and the next generation of Latino-led funds finds its backing. Structured rounds, real conversations, no wasted time. Less than 2% of VC partners are Latino. This room is where that changes. This is an invite-only event.
